The legendary FringeReview Oustanding Award was presented today to Refuse from Just Bcoz Productions. The award was presented by FringeReview editor Paul Levy at the show’s curtain call in Studio 5 at Assembly George Square. Paul’s review can be read here where the show achieved the GROUNDBREAKING WORK rating.
Paul Levy said this about the show: “This is important work at the Fringe, primarily because it doesn’t overplay itself. And though its heart is absolutely in the right place, it is not worn on its sleeve, but in caverns of menace and threat, and in exposing how the natural flow of things can be disrupted by the unnatural intentions of the darkest aspects of human beings. It has broken new ground in looking at a specific war which is all wars, the local story that is the universal story, written into a script that links the simple with the global effectively through art.“
